The rims looked kinda weird because they sent the wrong model... They sent the AVS VS-5 instead of the model 5
the offset on the vs-5 is 35/45 and is 18X8.5 dammit..i will have to buy spacers to clear my stillen brake kit.
how does it look?


I am also experiencing problems with my new stillen brake kit. It squeals/scrapes when I turn.. any ideas?

What size spacers are you gonna get? My new wheels didn't fit over the Z brakes and I ended up having to get 5 mm spacers to fit. But now my wheels don't have enough lugnut to hold them on, or at least that's what I think. I'm taking it back to the shop to get longer wheel studs put in. Anyone know what's up with the H&R spacers? Are they different in some way? Or are they just spacers. Just asking because people were talking about using those to clear big brakes.
